Asian Breast Health Outreach Project
Education and Mammogram Screening for Uninsured and Under-Insured Asian Women
The Asian Breast Health Outreach Project at Methodist Richardson Medical Center provides education and mammogram screenings for uninsured and under insured Asian women over the age of 40. It reduces barriers to screening for high-risk Asian women in North Texas. Since 2001, the program provided more than 10,000 mammograms.
The Asian Breast Health Outreach Project is supported by grants from the Susan G. Komen Dallas County, Susan G. Komen North Texas, and others.
Breast health seminars are conducted by program staff members and volunteers who can speak the Asian women's native languages. Free mammograms are offered to qualifying Asian women who live in Collin, Dallas, or Denton County and meet certain financial and medical criteria.
